2024 IN-PERSON MIDDLE SCHOOL ART AND DESIGN CAMP

Are you an aspiring artist or designer? Do you want to spend a week making art? If so, then our one-week art and design camp for Middle School students is perfect for you!

Join us for a fun, deep dive into the worlds of animation, character design, painting, photography, or video. During your week, you will have the opportunity to develop new skills and techniques, explore your creativity, and meet new people with similar interests.

Students pick one major to focus on for the week. Afternoon workshops provide the opportunity to explore new media and techniques that complement what you are learning in your major.

This camp is specifically designed for rising 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. No experience necessary, just a desire to learn and interest in art and design.

Majors for 2024 are:
